Giant Panda, And Climate change

What is climate change?

97% of scientist agree is that climate change is due to the green house gasses given off by humans. You might be wondering, how in the heck could we cause such a major problem? Well its due to the release of carbon dioxide causing the atmosphere to thicken. We release carbon dioxide by doing things like burning fossil fuels, like Cole and petroleum.https://www.edf.org/climate/human-activity-is-causing-global-warming

Results of climate change

Climate change has already had a giant impact on the environment, and if we don't do more things to stop it soon, it will become much worse! Climate change as already caused many glaciers to shrink, ice on rivers and lakes to break earlier, plant and animal ranges to change, and plants and trees are flowering early. And scientists say that climate change will continue to cause more sea ice to melt and cause the sea levels to rise. we can slow this down is by reducing are carbon footprint. Which sounds much easier to do than it actually is. http://climate.nasa.gov/effects/
